Doing Business in Haiti

Life is not easy for a Ti Machann, the Haitian women who sell products on the sides of the streets. She buy a bag of rice and a bucket of oil and turns around and sells it retail to passers by for consumption.

In a day or two in the hot Haiti sun, if it all sells, she may make a little profit with which she has to take care of the house.

In it you will find all your cooking products like butter, tomato paste, condensed milk, sardines, ketchup, spaghetti, and a few spices.

Haitians lack respect for small business men and women who provide the services they need everyday
